I don’t read local retired Press & Sun-Bulletin associate editor David Rossie’s weekly columns much any more. It’s painful reading someone who has the writing equivalent of Alzheimer’s as the little intelligence he has left evaporates into vapidness. But it’s like an accident–sometimes you can’t look away.
Today’s column in the P&SB is one such column. [...]

I’m likely to get myself in hot water with this opinion, but hey, what’s new? I’ve peripherally followed the story of how one of our local school districts, Chenango Valley, “discovered” a $3M shortfall in their budget last fall but didn’t bother to tell the public for six months. Oops.

I haven’t had much to say on the presidential race recently because there’s not much to say. Except I remain extremely disappointed in the Republican party’s selection of a moderate–John McCain. No, he’s not conservative no matter how loudly you protest. Would he be better than Obama or the Hillary? Sure. Somewhat. Will I vote [...]
